necessary software packages for any newly added devices. The software installation
media or packages are required for this function.
Standalone Diagnostics have the following restrictions on using the PCI Hot-Plug
Manager:
v
Adapters that are replaced must be exactly the same FRU part number as the
adapter being replaced.
v
New adapters cannot be added unless a device of the same FRU part number
already exists in the system, because the configuration information for the new
adapter is not known after the Standalone Diagnostics are booted.
v
The following functions are not available from the Standalone Diagnostics and will
not display in the list:
– Add a PCI Hot Plug Adapter
– Configure Devices
– Install/Configure Devices Added After IPL
You can run the hot plug task directly from the command line by typing the following
command:
diag -d
device
-T"identifyRemove"
However, note that some devices
support both the PCI Hot-Plug task and the RAID Hot-Plug Devices task. If this is the
case for the
device specified, then the Hot Plug Task displays instead of the PCI Hot
Plug Manager menu.
